Defined in header <type_traits>
template< class T >
struct is_unbounded_array;
(since C++20)

std::is_unbounded_array is a UnaryTypeTrait.

Checks whether T is an arrays of unknown bound. Provides the member constant value which is equal to true, if T is an array type of unknown bound. Otherwise, value is equal to false.

If the program adds specializations for std::is_unbounded_array or std::is_unbounded_array_v, the behavior is undefined.

Inherited from std::integral_constant

Member constants

value
[static]
true if T is an array type of unknown bound., false otherwise
(public static member constant)

Member functions

operator bool
converts the object to bool, returns value
(public member function)
operator()
(C++14)
returns value
